Having observed in one of the daily papers, a call for the meeting of the Teachers State Association, to be held - in In diana, Pa., on Tuesday, Dec. 29th, ult., I con cluded to attend and listen to some of the veterans in the educational ranks of our State. So, early in the morning of that day, I started, carpet-bag in hand s for the railroad, to take the morning train for Blairsville. On niy way out, I niade the acquaintance of Dr. Stewart, of Indiana, Pa., an old gentleman of enviable reputation as a physician, and highly esteemed as a citizen. At Blairsville Intersection, we met with a number of edu cational men awaiting an opportunity to pro ceed to Indiana, After changing cars we were soon en route for that place: The coun try through which we passed between the in tersection and Indiana is wild, and much of ' the land is yet covered , with forests. Some parts however are cleared and well improved. After a somewhat tedious ride we arrived in the town of Indiana, which we found crowd ed with yeomanry from all parts of the county. We soon learned that the court of the coun ty was in session, which, together with the meeting of the Association, caused such a crowd to be in town. After dinner we made our way through the mud to the Lutheran church, where the As sociation was already in session. We were gratified to find the house well filled with an intelli g ent looking audience. Upward of one hundred teachers were present. Prof. Stodard had just finished addressing the Association. A resolution was then proposed and adopt ed, complimenting the editors of Indiana and the adjoining counties, for the active part they have taken in support of the common school system. The compliment was ack nowledged, and interesting remarks made, by several editors present. S. B. McCor.mic, Superintendent of Cam bria county, read an interesting report on the lights and .shadows of the teacher's life.— Did I not think your readers would see the proceedings of the Association, from abler pens, I would report some of the remarks from the many able reports and addresses de livered during the meeting. Suffice it to say of Mr. McCormic's report, that it reflected honor upon himself, and evinced a mind well acquainted with the teacher's trials and pleas ures. Interesting addresses were delivered on ed ucational topics, during the meeting, by Prof. Stodard, Lamborn, Dr. Burroughs, and others. Dr. Burroughs, the editor of the Pennsyl vania School Journal, is a well known veteran in the good cause ; having been Secretary of State—which, at that time, included the office of Superintendent of Schools—when the com mon school system was first put into opera tion in our State. It _does a young teacher good to bear him recount in his pleasant and unassuming manner, the hardships .encoun tered by the first common school teachers in Pennsylvania. I see from what I have already written, that were I to make remarks on all the inci dents connected with the meeting of the As sociation, my communication would be en tirely too lengthy. Suffice it to say that notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, we had a pleas ant and instructive meeting; and I trust that many teachers went home with lighter hearts as well as lighter :pockets, firmly resolving to work harder than ever in their respective charges, for the diffusion of knowledge and the promotion of the welfare of their fellow beings. - Lest I might weary your patience, I will cut short my letter without saying anything of my return to my place of sojournin g among the hospitable inhabitants of Spruce Creek LEROY, A. •• " ' •:•• ' MR. EDITOR :—We had the pleasure of at tending on Saturday, 26th Dec., '57, an ex amination of the school under the charge of T. J. Hyatt, at Harmony Grove, Clay town ' ship, Huntingdon county. Several citizens and teachers were present to witness the ex ercises, which were highly entertaining. It is but doing justice to the teacher to say that great credit is due him for the manner in which the scholars acquitted themselves. By request of Mr. Hyatt, at the close of the examination, a number of addiesses were de livered, to the school, by teachers and citi zens present. On the evening of the same day a "Teach ers' Institute" was held at the same place.— . And notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, a vast number of people, both old and young, was in attendance and listened with marked attention to the exercises which were as follows: On motion, D. Price, Esq., was called to the Chair and T. J. Hyatt, ap pointed Secretary. A. R. Miller was then called to deliver an opening address to which he heartily responded, after which the subject " What do we educate for?" was very appro :;•, priately. introduced and discussed, with forci .., ble suggestions, by J. B. Moreland, Esq., and continued by 'Messrs. Hyatt, D. Price, D. Mil ler, and others, for a considerable length of time. 'On motion, said discussion closed, and the subject of 'School Government was intro dueed and opened in quite an entertaining manner by Mr: Hyatt and continued, until a late hour, by teachers and citizens present. Mr. Millet then-delivered to the parents a brief lectureen'the necessity of their visiting schools, which wakfollowed with an applica ble song by the teacher of this school and his pupils.. On motion adjourned. We are highly gratified to know that the citizens of this place manifest such an inter ' est in the education of their youth and in the upbuilding of their school. On account of disqualified teachers, this school, for years was in a backward condition ; but through the untiring labor of so zealous an „ ' , instructor as Mr. Hyatt, it now ranks among c -the first in this section, and bids fair for rapid ;- I .advancement.

But if you undertake to come in here and build forts, rest assured that you will be opposed, and that you will need all the force under your command, and much more. By virtue of my office as Governor of the Territory of Utah, I command you to mar shal your troops and leave this Territory, for it can be no possible benefit to you to waste treasure and blood in prosecuting your course upon the side of a rebellion against the gen eral government by its administration. The other letters of Young merely inform Alexander that he has arranged to send to the camp of the latter, to join her husband, Mrs. Mayo and infant, and Mr. Jesse Jones. He also cordially invited a visit from Cap tain Marcy, Colonel Alexander or any of his °facers, and promises them a hospitable re ception. SINGULAR DEATH FRO3I THE BITE OF A. CAT.-A. Correspondent of the Phila. Press, writing from Jeanesville, Luzerne county, Pa., Dec. 27, says:—"Mr. John Abel, clerk in the employ of J. B. McCreary & Co., at Lewis Audereid's colliery, died on the morn ing of the 27th from the bite of a cat. The circumstances are very singular. about ten weeks since he was walking from the dwel ling-house to the store when he met the cat in the path. He put out his hand to play with her, when she instantly flew at him and bit him. lie complained a little at the time, but it passed away and no more was thought of it. .He had at times, however, a great re pugnance to water and the mere sight of it caused a shuddering sensation. On Christ mas day he dined at the hotel of 31r. David Martz, at Jeanesville, and appeared in usual health. On the morning of the 26th he com plained of being sick, and at last took to his bed. lie suffered intense agony, trying to bite the hand which the cat had bitten ten weeks previous, and exclaiming that the sight of water niade him mad—a raving maniac.— His friends had to bold him to preven his tearing his breast. Medical skill . proved of no avail, and 8 o'clock on the 27th, Sunday morning, be breathed his last. What ren ders the circumstance doubly distressing is, that he was the only child of parents now in the far west. If this should meet their eye it may afford them some faint codsolation to know that he met with utmost care and kind ness, and that no parents could have done more for him than was done by the kind friends who smoothed his dying pillow.

DEAR CiLOI3E:•-.- On Monday evening the _Democratic members of the House met in caucus and almost unanimously nominated 11.1Brower Long - necker of Montgomery county for Speaker, and Jacob Zeiger of York county, for principal Clerk.— The House was organized at n o'lock, Longnecker had for Speaker, 69 votes, Smith of Cambria, I. Thos. Struth ers, 28, the American and Republican candidate. This morning the Democratic Senators nominated W. 11. Welsh, Esq., of York county, for Speaker of their body. The Americans and Republicans will support Darwin A. Finney. There are several candidates for each position within the gift of either body of the;Legislature. There is a disposi tion to divide the posts over the State. In such event, the Juniata region may be served,—at least there is some prospect for the centre of the State to obtain something. An animated contest for the Chief Clerkship in the Sen ate, is going on between Thos. W. Duffield of Philadelphia, and Gen. 11. W. Miller, of this city. The representative from Huntingdon, Dr. D. Houtz. is here mingling with his fellow representatives. He is a gentleman in deportment and will make a worthy mein. her. A very large proportion, say two thirds of the House, are new members. Mr. Schell, of the Senate, from your District, is an "old stager" at legislation. He is a man of experience and ability and will occupy an important position in his body. The caucus for sub-ordinate officers of the House will probably be held to-night, CINCINNATI, Jan. 4.—The St. Louis Democrat, received here, says that the passengers from Kansas furnish the following exciting reports : On Friday the .sth ult., news reached Leavenworth that an engagement had occurred between the free-State mili tia under Gen. Lane, at Sugar Mound, and the United States dragoons. The officers ordered Gen. Lane to sur render, and upon his refusal, they charged, but were re pulsed with the loss of three of their number. The dra goons then retired, and sent to Gov. Denver for reinforce ments. The Governor ordered three companies of dra goons to proceed to tho 'seat of war, and a bloody affray was anticipated. As soon as the news of the engagement was received, the people commenced organizing and hur rying to the assistance of Gen. Lane. It was expected that before the dragoons would arrive, Lane would be reinforc ed by 2500 men. There was intense excitement at Law rence. and the people were preparing to take the President Calhoun is said to have left the Territory. QPECIAL NOTICE.-LOVE & Mc- DIVITT would respectfully inform their numerous customers and the public generally that, notwithstanding the "pressure of the times," they still continue to deal out, at their old stand in Market Square, all kinds of Gro ceries, Confectionaries, Fruits, Tobacco, Segars of every grade from Half Spanish to the genuine Principe, La :Na tional, &c., &c., at greatly reduced prices.

Hollidaysburg, Exchange Hotel, CC it. Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, Larrynttis and all diseases of the throat and lungs, by Medical Inhalation, lately used in the Bromton Hospital, London. The great point in the treatment of all human ' maladies, is to get at the disease in the direct manner.— All medicines are estimated by their action upon the organ requiring relief. This is tilt important fact upon which Inhalation is based. If the stomach is diseased we take medicine directly into the stomach. If the lungs are dis eased, breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into the lungs. Medicines are antidotes to disease and should be applied to the very seat of disease. Inhalation is the application of this principle fo the treatment of the lungs, fur it gives us direct access to those intricate air cells, and tubes which lie out of reach of every other means of ad ministering medicines. The reason that Consumption, and other diseases of the lungs, have heretofore resisted all treatment has been because they have never been ap proached in a direct manlier by medicine. They were in tended to act upon the lungs, and yet were applied to the stomach. Their action was intended to be local, and yet, they were so administered that they should only act con stitutionally, expending their immediate and principal ac tion upon the unollending stomach, whilst the foul ulcers within the lungs were nnmolested, Inhalation brings the medicine in direct contact with the disease, without the disadvantage of any violent action. Its application is so simple, that it can be employed by the youngest infant or feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stomach, or in terfere in the letist degree with the strength, comfort, or business of the patient: Other Diseases Treatet2.—ln relation to the following dis eases, either when complicated with lung affections or ex isting alone, I also invite consultation, 1 usually find thou promptly curable.
